These voters said "No" by a The Amalgamated Sugar Co. 2,578 People Said "NO" 2 Va to 1 vote. Now the voters are called upon to again express themselves on the same issue. As before, we merely ask that you compare your present electric service with the PUD proposal. V You Get Good Electric Service by people experienced in the business and subject to state and federal regulation —Some PUDs render notoriously poor service—no PUD is subject to any kind of state or federal regulation. V You Get Low Electric rates which have been steadily reduced over a long period of years. If electricity were free, you'd only save a few pennies per day. In these days of high prices, your electric service is more a bargain than ever —PUD electric ratee in Oregon and Washington, includ ing those using that "wonderful" Bonneville power, average generally higher than Idaho Power rates. V You Have a Utility Company under business management —Do you think political management Is more eiiicient? y/ You have a Utility Company that pays high federal taxes —Do you advocate eliminating those who contribute toward federal tax requirements? \J PAGE SEVEN You Have highly developed Farm Electrification —The PUD proposed for Malheur county would attempt to eliminate the company which has made wide spread farm electrification possible in Malheur county. Remember—A PUD is not intended to be a competitor of Idaho Power Company. The purpose of a PUD is to put all competitors out of business In a given area, and the law provides it the power of condemnation. iD*Hoy«>weR A SELF-SUPPORTING. T A X P A Y IN G B U S IN E S S A five-cent Increase in the gov ernment support price for potatoes and approval of a program for special loans to producers on pota toes In temporary storage were an- uou.iced by Mr. Hutchinson. Tixe Increase, made by the de partment of agriculture to meet an advance in the potato parity price brings the support price in Malheur county to »1.90 a hundred weight for October, with monthly raises to $2 in November and $2.10 in December. This schedule is for (J. S. No. 1 potatoes, sacked and loaded f.o.b. car. Support price lor U. S. No. 2 grade and U. S. No. 1 size B are 50 per cent of the above prices for U. S. No. l’s. The special loans will be made on potatoes stored in temporary field pits provided no permanent storage is available, Mr. Hutchin son said. Prospects that existing farm cellars and warehouses would be inadequate to handle all of the potatoes needing storage led the county committee to request ap proval of the special loan program. Regular loans on potatoes In per manent storage offer price pro tection to producers at the full support price schedule. Special loans on potatoes In temporary pit stor age will support prices at the September level of $1.80 a hundred weight. The chairman emphasized that the committee will approve spec ial loan only after field inspection shows that the storage pit has been" constructed In an approved manner. Producers who intend to take out a special loan are re quired to notify the committee be fore the potatoes are put in the pit. 2,4-D WEED KII.LER APPROVED Spraying 2,4-D to control bind weed and Canadian thistle has been approved under the 1947 ag ricultural conservation program. It will not qualify for practice pay ments In 1946 because weed control measures under the current year’s program have been established since the first of the year. Department of agriculture scien tists have reported that cattle and sheep grazed on pasture treated with 2,4-D reveal no unusual ef fects from the heblcide. They point out. however, that their experi ments have been conducted with pure 2,4-D, and warn that com mercial 2,4-D preparations could contain impurities and other in gredients which might have toxic effects. m 3 . • The spectre of want, privation or poverty need never haunt you If you take just one important step.
